One good thing about the Gwangju Photonics Expo.

The Gwangju Photonics Expo (2009 광주세계광엑스포) was supposed to run from September 10th through November 5th, was scaled back to October 9th through November 5th because of swine flu concerns, but has yet to open.

But there is one good thing to come out of this ridiculously over-hyped event: the logo.



It's the Chinese character 光, meaning "light," neatly combined by the red stroke with the Korean word "빛," also meaning "light." That's the same 光, pronounced 광, in Gwangju.

I love the interplay between the Hanja and Hangeul for their logo. It looks well though-out, and good eye for spotting it!
